    What year did it all change for the worst?

    My two kids, Mallory who is 11 and my son Noah who is 8, where with me this weekend and I let them watch my copy of SS Old School.

    Hello all..... I was wondering what year did Sesame Street change and they gave up over half of the show to Elmo?(:grouchy: :rolleyes: ) I tried to watch it the other day and couldn't stand the thing.
